    Description

    Board Members

    The Trilogy Trust Foundation, trading as Bright Steps Project, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping individuals and families rebuild their lives after hardship. In 2024 alone, we supported over 77 people and raised more than $500,000 to provide emergency financial aid, long-term housing assistance, and practical resources for families in crisis.

    Founded by Dr. Krissy Jones, who personally experienced homelessness and the lack of sustainable support available, the Foundation was created to fill a critical gap. Too many programs offer only temporary relief—Bright Steps Project focuses on lasting stability, not short-term fixes.

    Our Mission

    To provide meaningful financial and emotional support to individuals and families facing crisis—empowering them to take sustainable steps toward stability, independence, and hope.

    We are now expanding our impact by seeking grants, government, and local funding to scale our programs and reach more people in need.
